I voted in the GOP primary for Cagle, Handel (shippeeng and handles), whoever is running against Kathy with a K, and abstained in most of the other races. There were also some questions at the end asking whether I’d support Fair Tax and Guest Worker programs. I voted no to both.

So, if Democrats don’t have Ralph Reed to kick around in November, I accept full responsibility. I fully understand Chris’ point that he’d likely be a gift to Democrats in November worth a 5- to 15-percent handicap, but I’m not willing to risk an election that’s even that close with Jim Martin or Greg Hecht as the candidate. I have reservations about Martin considering how poorly DFCS was run for a long time (though that arguably had more to do with funding than with the person running it). And Hecht is a sleaze that’d I’d have a tough time voting for even against Reed (though I probably would, I bet a lot of people wouldn’t).

So that’s that. Chastise me at will.
